[Dragonocho]

Would Sports Illustrated refrain from covering the Royals for a year? KThanx

[ChiTown]

In for the win! CY got this one........

[Reerun_KC]

In for the HR derby....

[ChiTown]

This shit. Let's do it!

[stonedstooge]

Bats need to come to life today

[Dartgod]

In for the win!

[ChiTown]

That was a shot by Esky. Good play by Headley

[stonedstooge]

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE DONG BOYS

[ChiTown]

Booooooom MOOOOOOOOOOOSE!

[tk13]

Moose bomb.

[ChiTown]

Anybody think Cain looks a little off? I'm wondering if he might be dinged up....

Hosmer sliding into 1B again..............FFS, STOP ALREADY!!!!!!!!!

[petegz28]

really? a broken bat double??? just fuck

[duncan_idaho]

Anybody think Cain looks a little off? I'm wondering if he might be dinged up....

Hosmer sliding into 1B again..............FFS, STOP ALREADY!!!!!!!!!

He's in a bit of a funk. They also have faced a lot of righthanders with good breaking pitches of late, which is tough on RH batters.

[Dartgod]

really? a broken bat double??? just fuck

Is ok. CY's got this.

[Munson]

Whew! I thought that was a homer.

[Mr. Laz]

shiite ... i thought that one was gone.

[petegz28]

Lookie there! It only took 5 games but we didn't allow a run in the 1st!!!!

[tk13]

Close call there. Almost gave up another Yankee Stadium special.

[baitism]

PGA using the slogan "History Awaits." LMAO

[Munson]

Well, that was a waste of an inning.

[Munson]

Home run to right field. I'm shocked.

[petegz28]

:facepalm:

[Pablo]

Well, he got that out of the way.

[stonedstooge]

Welp, Cy gives up a dinger

[Dartgod]

Well, fuck.

[ChiTown]

Boom. Another Yankee Dong. Not a good ballpark for our staff to pitch

[petegz28]

I'd love to see how many HR's Hos, Moose, Gordon and Perez would hit in a season if they they played in this ballpark 81 games a season

[baitism]

Well, the luck was bound to reverse at some point this year.

[Reerun_KC]

Boom. Another Yankee Dong. Not a good ballpark for our staff to pitch

Well Arlington is up there

[duncan_idaho]

I'd love to see how many HR's Hos, Moose, Gordon and Perez would hit in a season if they they played in this ballpark 81 games a season

Add 10 to each. Easily.

[petegz28]

Everything just going the way of the Yankees this series...broken bat doubles, 315 ft HR's, nubbers on the infield for a hit.....

[duncan_idaho]

Everything just going the way of the Yankees this series...broken bat doubles, 315 ft HR's, nubbers on the infield for a hit.....

That's baseball.

[petegz28]

Denny was so out of the game last night in the 8th that he called Cain, "Heathcott"...

[petegz28]

That's baseball.

I know, ....meanwhile the Twins can't do no wrong

[O.city]

Add 10 to each. Easily.

For the lefties for sure.

I think it's bullshit that they get to have the rf fence that short. Same as left in houston

[petegz28]

For the lefties for sure.

I think it's bullshit that they get to have the rf fence that short. Same as left in houston

Is what it is....just makes it that much more enjoyable when they cry about the HR's that "would have been if they were in NY" when they play in other parks

[Dartgod]

I know, ....meanwhile the Twins can't do no wrong

CAN

[ROYC75]

In for the HR derby....

So far, this.

[duncan_idaho]

For the lefties for sure.

I think it's bullshit that they get to have the rf fence that short. Same as left in houston

Plays the same for both teams, I guess. They just gear their roster to take advantage of it.

Eric Hosmer will probably hit 40 HR as a New York Yankee in 2018.

The LF in Houston is my least-liked feature in MLB. I get so sick of watching lefties just flip the ball out to left there.

[petegz28]

Boston up 2-0 over the Twins

[petegz28]

CAN

yeah, that too :thumb:

[KCCHIEFS27]

Crap strike call against moose

[baitism]

We aren't scoring runs because our plate discipline was went to shit. Way too many players swinging at pitches out of the strike zone.

[Dartgod]

We aren't scoring runs because our plate discipline was went to shit. Way too many players swinging at pitches out of the strike zone.

This.

[ChiTown]

Fuck. Here we go, double, walk and A-Rod up to bat

[petegz28]

****. Here we go, double, walk and A-Rod up to bat

your afternoon soon to have one less thing to attend too

[siberian khatru]

Fuck. Here we go, double, walk and A-Rod up to bat

Indeed

[baitism]

A-roid. 320 ft hr. JFC

[petegz28]

your afternoon soon to have one less thing to attend too

Right on queue....game over

[ChiTown]

and HR. Ballgame. I'm back to work. Fuck, this is a complete shit show going on right now. Got to get this shit turned around in Chicago

[RollChiefsRoll]

Juicer fuck.

[Munson]

Game over.

[Reerun_KC]

And Gone.... Royal HR Derby !

[Chromatic]

Our starting pitching is terrible.

No way we make it to the post-season with the starters struggling as badly as they are now.

[Reerun_KC]

Bring out the brooms, much sweeping going on....

[tk13]

320 foot Yankee Stadium special there. Our fly ball pitchers are an awful fit with this ballpark.

[Strongside]

This is depressing.

[duncan_idaho]

320 foot Yankee Stadium special there. Our fly ball pitchers are an awful fit with this ballpark.

This.

Also still a TON of game left and they have had good swings against Pineda.

[Reerun_KC]

This is depressing.

eh its baseball...

There are only 339020094852 more games this season... This series will be meaningless in 2 weeks...

[ChiTown]

This.

Also still a TON of game left and they have had good swings against Pineda.

Maybe, but that's highly unlikely given our current funk.

[ChiefsCountry]

320 foot Yankee Stadium special there. Our fly ball pitchers are an awful fit with this ballpark.

Bad luck having our 3 fly ball pitchers get the Yankee Stadium series. Need to make sure Ventura and Duffy get to pitch in New York if we face them in the playoffs.

[Dartgod]

And the Twins have fought back to take a 3-2 lead over the Red Sox. Still batting, 1st and 3rd with one out.

[baitism]

eh its baseball...

There are only 339020094852 more games this season... This series will be meaningless in 2 weeks...

I wish people would stop subscribing to this BS. Every game is important. We were one sweep away from winning the division last year, which I would prefer to do this year.

[petegz28]

and just like that, The Twins go up 3-2 over Boston.....

[BWillie]

I know MLB.TV does not work and is blacked out in the Kansas City area, but I am going to be out of town for the next two weeks where I should be able to access MLB.TV

I'm on their website, confused by pricing. Says $24.99 or $19.99. And it's monthly, but can I just buy it for two weeks, get pro-rated and cancel it?

[Discuss Thrower]

Get the slump outta the way early.

[GloryDayz]

At least we help them in the first for a change.

[duncan_idaho]

I wish people would stop subscribing to this BS. Every game is important. We were one sweep away from winning the division last year, which I would prefer to do this year.

You're missing the point. It's not that the game doesn't matter.

It's that in a 162-game season, you're going to have a bad game/bad series/bad stretch at times.

The key is limiting how often/how bad they are. Can you keep a bad series from turning into a losing streak? Can you keep a bad game from ruining a series? Can you keep losing streaks to just a few games?

This is the first bad stretch of the season for the Royals, coming off an incredibly hot stretch. Even if they lose today, KC is still 9-6 in its last 15 games. They're still 10 games over .500 at just over 1/4 of the way through the season.

[ChiTown]

and just like that, The Twins go up 3-2 over Boston.....

We will be out of 1st by the time we get back to KC. I have a feeling this little road trip is going to yield a 1 outta 6 for the R's.

Shit happens. Got to get it back on track and at least resemble a club that is competing while we are in Chicago. Right now, this is just a REALLY awful looking display of baseball - it's just strange seeing this team have so little going for it in the last 4 games. The D still looks okay, but that's about it.

[petegz28]

5-2
Twins...welcome to 1st place, Minnesota and Detroit

[baitism]

Honestly, we need to be out of first so there is some pressure to make the starting rotation changes this team needs.

Ned wanting to move Young to the bullpen to protect him is absurd. You can't make decisions afraid of injuries. It's how the Nats broke Strasburg and ruined a WS chance a few years ago.

[tk13]

I guess I just expect us to lose a few because we were on pace to win 108 games coming out of last weekend. That would be one of the best records in modern history. Just tough to do. This team could have a couple losing streaks and still win 90-100 games.

Plus right now our starting pitching is probably not good enough to win 108 games. I say this every year but I think starting pitching is the most important thing. It's why I didn't totally hate the Shields trade. You can't win unless you have a stopper or two at the front of the rotation. That's also how you avoid long losing streaks.

If being one game away from a WS title isn't enough motivation, I'm not sure dropping out of first in May will be.

Nope. It's isn't.

But the Royals are going to end today - at worst - tied for first place in their division. And that's with Greg Holland being injured and less effective than normal, Alex Rios playing only 8 games, and Danny Duffy and Yordano Ventura both vastly underachieving.

I think that's important perspective.

Still think 95 wins is going to take this division, and the Royals are in great shape to get there.

Now let's get Escy on and let Moustakas tie this one up.

[ChiTown]

Your wish needs to be completed. 1st and 3rd we are.

Let's go MOOOOSE!

[GloryDayz]

Yard time!

[ChiTown]

2nd and 3rd. BH probably scores two

[ChiTown]

welp..................:banghead:

[RollChiefsRoll]

Jesus Moose.

[petegz28]

Moose choke...

[RollChiefsRoll]

At least put the f'n ball in play guys...

[ChiTown]

That's a ball kicker. 2nd and 3rd 1 out and two straight K's. JFC, this is ugly:cuss:

[Dartgod]

Well, fuck.

[Munson]

Cain swinging at garbage.

[GloryDayz]

F!

[KCUnited]

Terrible ab's to end that half inning.

[baitism]

A couple of brutal ABs there.

[duncan_idaho]

Strikeout stuff ... :banghead:

Cain is really not picking up the ball from Pineda today.

[petegz28]

Cain choke...

[KCCHIEFS27]

Cain doesn't even look like he wants to be in the box

[petegz28]

Cain swinging at garbage.

He has been for several games now

[petegz28]

4 games, 4 runs scored.....

[RollChiefsRoll]

That last HR was A-Roid's 50th against the Royals -- most all-time. Overtakes Jim Thome at 49.

Too bad. Don't mind having a class act like Thome be our biggest assassin.

Wacky

[GloryDayz]

The Yankees this week are like the Royals of a few weeks ago...

[KChiefs1]

We need to face a pitcher like Guthrie soon to get us out of this funk.

[ChiTown]

CY has really battled/ He's given up 2 fly ball HR's, what a shame

[RollChiefsRoll]

WHIFF

[kc rush]

Are Royals batters even trying at this point. What a shitty approach and shitty at bats the last couple of innings.

[KCUnited]

Ned needs to allow more guests back into the clubhouse.

[RollChiefsRoll]

Girardi overmanaging?

[TLO]

I need to get laid.

[petegz28]

choke, choke and choke some more.....

[Sassy Squatch]

Remember when Royals game threads were 10+ pages everyday? Pepperidge farm remembers.

[God of Thunder]

Remember when Royals game threads were 10+ pages everyday? Pepperidge farm remembers.

You're talking about a game that started at 12:05pm.....on a Wednesday.......you're not going to get many people in the threads.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

"GAME OVER, SEASON OVER!!!!!"
--New baseball/Royals fans probably.

[TLO]

I hope a gorilla punches A-Rod in the kneecap.

[TLO]

GOING ALL CAPS FOR THE RALLY

[TLO]

NICE WALK CAIN.

BE PATIENT HOS

[ChiTown]

A Betances walk....that's areal rarity

[TLO]

THAT'S NOT WHAT WE NEEDED

[TLO]

RALLY TIME BOYS

[ChiTown]

hahahahaha, wtf? 4-2, I'll take it.

[TLO]

ONLY DOWN BY 2

[KCUnited]

Tying run to the plate.

[RollChiefsRoll]

A break! How about that.

[RollChiefsRoll]

Come on Gordo, rip it.

[C3HIEF3S]

Keep it rolling Gordo

[TLO]

GORDON FOOLED

[KCUnited]

Nasty

[C3HIEF3S]

Swing away, Sal.

[ChiTown]

Gordon......gawdamn - 2 K's from Hos and Gordon.

[petegz28]

Don't swing, Gordon...wouldn't want you to do that

[Reerun_KC]

dude clown shoe fitting Hoser and Gordon...

[ChiTown]

Sal is due for a big hit

[tk13]

Nasty stuff.

[RollChiefsRoll]

That was a disgusting slider.

[KCUnited]

Filth

[Al Bundy]

That pitch that Gordon looked at was a VERY hittable pitch. A Yankee would have smashed it over the wall. 3 strike outs on smashable pitches.

[ChiTown]

3 K's, and all 3 caught looking. Betances is a fucking pure filth.

[tk13]

Don't swing, Gordon...wouldn't want you to do that

I'd like to see you step in there and even make contact with an 87 mph slider like that.

[Munson]

Sal is due for a big hit

...or maybe not.

[petegz28]

you've got to be fucking joking! 3 guys all K looking at strike 3 with a man on and down 2 runs?

[TLO]

Jelly-legger

[Al Bundy]

Those pitches were all very hittable......

[RollChiefsRoll]

That series of three pitches to Salvy... holy schnikeys...

[RollChiefsRoll]

Those pitches were all very hittable......

Dude a high 99 mph fastball from a 6'7" pitcher, while hittable, is also extremely whiffable.

[Al Bundy]

Just not your day when you stare at 3 home run pitches...

[TLO]

Morales?

[suzzer99]

So where does Sal think that pitch is going to cross the plate if he strikes out looking - above his helmet?

[petegz28]

I'd like to see you step in there and even make contact with an 87 mph slider like that.

I'm not getting paid millions of $'s to hit a ball....:thumb:

[ChiefsCountry]

Those pitches were all very hittable......

Betances is one of the best relief pitchers in the game right with Wade Davis, not easy at all dipshit.

[Al Bundy]

BTW that is now an unearned run.

[tk13]

I'm not getting paid millions of $'s to hit a ball....:thumb:

Yeah, and no one who is getting paid millions to hit a ball can hit the guy. What does that tell you?

If you think any of those pitches were home run pitches you are nuts. Dude is 6'8" and throws 100 mph, and follows that up with a high 80's slider that breaks a foot.

[Al Bundy]

Homer's are what got the Royals swept right outta New York. One team knew how to hit 'em.. the other left their bats at home.

[ChiTown]

Homer's are what got the Royals swept right outta New York. One team knew how to hit 'em.. the other left their bats at home.

:LOL:

[RollChiefsRoll]

Homer's are what got the Royals swept right outta New York. One team knew how to hit 'em.. the other left their bats at home.

You once hit four homers in a single game, amirite?

[tk13]

In the last two seasons, Betances has pitched 116 IP, 55 H, 176 K, and a 1.08 ERA.

And they follow him up with mini-Randy Johnson. Good luck.

[Al Bundy]

:LOL:

That is how the Yankees have scored their runs, and they are ready to sweep the Royals who looked "below average" on offense. We all knew this stretch was coming for the offense, but I was hoping it wouldn't happen while the starting pitching has been dog shit.

[Al Bundy]

You once hit four homers in a single game, amirite?

Nahhh.. I hit a total of 5 home runs all 4 years I played varsity baseball in high school :thumb:

[Al Bundy]

It was very clear the Royals just wanted this one over in the ninth. Well, take the series in Chicago.

[Munson]

Well, that sucked.

[Dartgod]

Well, at least we doubled our offensive output from the last 3 games.

[petegz28]

They got the sweep, the season series and gave us a roomate if not two to share in first place....

5 runs in 4 games is all we could muster....

[ChiTown]

On to Chicago. Bleh, that was miserable. I hope they can flush this nasty turd that's been following us around the last 4 games. This little stretch has been unsightly.

[Al Bundy]

They got the sweep, the season series and gave us a roomate if not two to share in first place....

5 runs in 4 games is all we could muster....

They faced 3 straight Cy Young candidates.

Meh, good teams are going to have streaks like this. It's baseball.

We had 3 extreme flyball pitchers go consecutively in the smallest park in the majors. I'm not mad. Streaks like this are going to happen.

We managed to combine shit starting pitching and no offense in the last 4 games. That is just how it goes.

[C3HIEF3S]

We managed to combine shit starting pitching and no offense in the last 4 games. That is just how it goes.

Yep, it is actually.

One year ago today we were in the middle of getting swept by last years Houston Astros.

Guess what happened last year? We won the AL pennant.

[GloryDayz]

We're inching our way back to a tie game.. . LOL, a tie...

[siberian khatru]

Goddamn Twinkies who the fuck do they think they are!

[Prison Bitch]

Humiliated by a team who was just 1-10. Glad I didn't watch one second of any of these games, nobody wants to see quitters get scared of the name on front of the opponents jersey. Sad.
